Callista (Callistemon Myrtaceae)
By Lucy (Year 9, Concordia College)Dancing like nobody’s watching through dawn’s breeze,
pirouetting in the spotlight.
Redder than ruby.
Opulent as fairywren. -
Welcome Home
By Lily (Year 9, Concordia College)By the time this has reached you,

I hope your flesh has nourished the moss
And your bones have become a shelter for the creatures -

At night when the whole world holds its breath.
Beneath the quiet, there is noise.
Secrets rustling around my ears. -

By Macy (Year 9, Concordia College)I met you in royal blue
You wore a robe of crashing waves and salt
Hot to touch
Cool to embrace
